HKMP (Hollow Knight Multiplayer)

• Easy Setup Guide (Important to read!)
• Video Guide 🎦
• How to use Skins | **Example Image: ** https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/910762350267744276/910765152725524480/HKMP_Skin_Example.png
• HKMP Discord (Dedicated space for finding people to play HKMP with)

How it works

HKMP puts a copy of each player into each other players world.
Enemies have separate health and will usually be in different places; Items/abilities must be collected separately; and Breakable objects must be broken by each player. Player attacks happen in each player's world, damaging any enemies/players it comes in contact with. A player is only hurt by the enemies in their own world. This page explains how you can use other mods and addons to synchronize some aspects, and improve your experience.

Public Servers:

General use (PVP enabled)

• [How to use Enemy/Boss Skins](#modding-discussion message)
• Guide to Creating a Skin by HBKit

Common issues

• If the Skin List is covering up other mods, you can toggle it with Del or Fn+Del. You can edit this Keybind in the Custom Knight menu.
• If your skin doesn’t show up in the menu, ensure that you extracted it from the zip/rar/etc it came in (tutorial: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1207486627124093019/1403869873192571024/i.png).
• If your skin doesn’t work, go to Options > Mods > Custom Knight > Advanced > Fix My Skins. After this you may need to click Reload in the previous menu.
  • Upgraded Dream Shield (UDS) breaks Custom Knight’s first launch. To use both mods at once: disable UDS, open a save with only Custom Knight and wait until it stops lagging. You can then close the game and enable UDS again.
• If you see White Boxes ◻️, restart your game. You may also need to apply skins in a small room like a stag station.
• Ensure that you apply skins from the Pause Menu when your save file is loaded. Skins applied from the Main Menu only affect new files.

Anyone got good suggestions for big overhaul mods?

[mellow abyss]

Hi guys, question here
When I was playing hollow Knight, my PC randomly turned off, now my safe file is corrupted. Is there anything I can do?

[covert estuary]

?tag savefaq

[fathom wigeon]

Save Files

What do save files looks like?

• Each Hollow Knight save file is a user#.dat where # is the save slot for the file
• You can rename user3.dat to user1.dat to set it to your first save slot
• You can keep a copy of all of your save files by copy and pasting them into a different folder on your computer

Reverting Backups

• Automatic backups are called user#.dat.bak#, where the first # is the save slot, and the second # is the backup number. You will usually have your last three backups
• You restore a backup by deleting the main file, and then removing the .bak# part of the backup version

Modded Saves

• A modded save may also have a user#.modded.json (and similarly named backup). This file and the user#.dat are part of the save

Where are the files?

• On windows, the default path for Save Files is:
  • %appdata%\..\LocalLow\Team Cherry\Hollow Knight\
  • You should just copy and paste that path directly into the File Explorer path bar at the top.
• For other operating systems (and Xbox Games), type ?tag saves into chat

I need a specific type of save file

• Various save files can be found in the "Saves" section of this page: https://www.speedrun.com/hollowknight/resources
  • If the file you download is a .rar or other archived format, then you will need to extract it with something like 7zip

Editing save files

• MoreSaves: With the MoreSaves mod installed, you can edit save files from the Menu, by going to Options > Mods > MoreSaves
• QoL: Opening a save with QOL installed will create an extra save file called user#.json, which can be edited using Notepad or a similar text editor
• DebugMod: While not an intended purpose, you can edit some parts of your save file using Debug, such as Nail Damage, and those changes will remain even after uninstalling the mod
• Website: https://bloodorca.github.io/hollow/

[covert estuary]

Try the reverting backup

?tag gamepass

[fathom wigeon]

Modding "Xbox Games" versions (Gamepass / Microsoft's App Store):

Note: this is for Desktop/Laptop. You cannot mod the game on Xbox consoles

• Use Lumafly (it has additional support for this version that other installers currently don't have)
  • Download: https://themulhima.github.io/Lumafly?download
  • Make sure that the Lumafly's exe isn't in Downloads. Ideally put it on your Desktop.
• Right-Click the Lumafly.exe and select "Run as Administrator"
  • It should automatically find the install and ask if it's correct. If it doesn't find it, then you will need to link it to the Hollow Knight.exe found in C:\XboxGames\Hollow Knight\Content by default.
• After installing / installing any mods, wait about a minute before launching the game (this is because Windows does a weird thing for Xbox Games things, and it makes copies of files).
  If you have further issues, then please see #1090079233520451714 and create a #1057825333841240104 post if needed.

Important paths

• Save Files: %AppData%\..\Local\Packages\
  • Find a folder in here with Team Cherry in the name.
• Game Files: C:\XboxGames\Hollow Knight\Content\
• Mod Files: C:\XboxGames\Hollow Knight\Content\hollow_knight_Data\Managed\Mods\
• Note: Microsoft manages this install weirdly and syncs its files to inaccessible folders, so changes may need a few minutes to take effect and bugs with installing or uninstalling mods can occur.

but thank you for the heads up

oh lmao

[dense wigeon]

Although I'm keeping a vague eye on the skins

And considering if they're getting added to the main doc, or a seperate doc.

[lunar root]

i was going to make a joke but there isnt really a grimm equivalent on ss

do it

[lunar root]

shes taller

double edged sword

[red plinth]

(Personally recommend a fresh doc, just so you don't have people asking 'why this hornet skin doesn't work' as they put it into their HK swapper folder)

[lunar root]

an already larger spritesheet made bigger because of the characters size, on another hand though
easier to turn some characters into skins

[dense wigeon]

I thought about it, but also it seems a forgone conclusion that someone sill put the knight into Silksong. So Knight skins may end up being silksong skins too. Maybe I should do a poll or something

[lunar root]

holy shit is this because your doc linked here

I also think it'll help with loading if Silksong ever eventually gets the same dedication from skin makers as hk

[dense wigeon]

Possibly? Or people just finding the Public Skins playlist on YouTube

[lunar root]

the max max views on others is 20k

hey now that i think about it
even though it might be stupid because there likely wouldnt be previews

[dense wigeon]

It seems like there's already a surprising amount working on skins, even tho the tools are still a bit jank. Will be interesting to see how many of these skins get finished

[lunar root]

imagine if the new installer had a skin section

[dense wigeon]

Artists have been against that for existing Custom Knight

I don't imagine it will be different for Silksong

[lunar root]

now im curious

[red plinth]

you're a bad influence -pulls out tablet pen-

[dense wigeon]

Sorry not sorry ok a little bit sorry because I do so want to play with chibi but also I really want to see Mochi in Pharloom

[dense wigeon]

Most of the discussion was in modding but basically all the reasons made sense to me. And from my own POV, artists aren't going to submit to something like that, and I don't think whoever manages the installer is going to want to stay on top of it

[spiral urchin]

What is world sense 😭

[lunar root]

world sense is what lets you see percent

[covert estuary]

Allows you to see the %, is normally in the black egg

Download either a 112 save from speedrunning.com or install godseeker plus, I believe that allows you to create a godseeker file

[patent edge]

it works!!

thunderstore is a bit iffy tho it let me config a mod once then it didnt allow me to do it again

[swift hazel]

nexus mods works a lot better

yea if u gonna mod silksong use nexus mods its a lot smoother and more fluid + more mod potential

js be sure to watch a guide (i watched troublechute's guide)

i think its best to wait for an official mod application imo give it about a year

[unique kindle]

Oh yeah, Thunderstore or on an independent modlinks, it'll be more organized than it is now

[umbral snow]

problem is it doesnt work with all platforms

like mac etc

do we talk about silksong modding here aswell? or?

[dark crater]

Is there a way to get power of infinity without defeating the mod boss

[lucid thicket]

You can most likely edit the local settings file to get the ability. Open your saves folder with Lumafly, open userX.modded.json (X = slot number) with something like notepad++ and ctrl+f the mod's name to find its settings

[lucid thicket]

Most of the talk happens in the modding server, though more will be shared here once the community endorsed resources are developped

• HKMP Discord (Dedicated space for finding people to play HKMP with)

How it works

HKMP puts a copy of each player into each other players world.
Enemies have separate health and will usually be in different places; Items/abilities must be collected separately; and Breakable objects must be broken by each player. Player attacks happen in each player's world, damaging any enemies/players it comes in contact with. A player is only hurt by the enemies in their own world. This page explains how you can use other mods and addons to synchronize some aspects, and improve your experience.

Public Servers:

General use (PVP enabled)
 IP:    hkmp.org
 PORT:  26950
Requires HkmpPouch```
```ml

 PORT:  26951

```ml
Infection Tag

*Important note: "Invalid Addons" means that you have extra HKMP addons that can't be used on the server. Pouch servers can have any Addons that say that they require Pouch, but you otherwise cannot use others!*

hi

my lumafly is not opening

[fathom wigeon]

How to fix Installer Errors

• Make sure Hollow Knight is CLOSED.
• Make sure that the Installer isn't in your Downloads folder (Desktop or a folder on the same drive as your game install is best).
• If the installer is in a .zip, then you must Extract it
• Right-click the installer file, and select "Run as Administrator"
• If Lumafly is automatically closing, you may be missing a system file to open it. This is currently easily fixed by running the older installer, Scarab once.
  • -# Note: it's recommended to use Lumafly overall, as Scarab has some long term issues that are fixed by Lumafly.

there is a pure vessel skin tho

If some1 knows how to program to not do quests and make them completed using player data or somthing else it will help me a lot with code i mean

[mighty walrus]

Better?
No spoilers

[lucid thicket]

Not really since I haven't played the mod myself but if you follow the steps then send a screenshot of what you find I can give more precise indications

[lucid thicket]

edit: as Neko said below, if you want a Markoth skin there's one already.
The modding server has a thread where you can find artists who can accept commissions, but be aware that:

• Skins are several months of work, so they usually cost multiple hundred dollars and artist can only accept a limited amount of commissions
• There is a common scam where someone pretends to be an artist and runs away with your money, so make absolutely sure that the person you're commissioning already made a full skin before

[fierce flame]

also if it's for a markoth knight skin it exists

[lucid thicket]

I missed what the request was, indeed

How it works

HKMP puts a copy of each player into each other players world.
Enemies have separate health and will usually be in different places; Items/abilities must be collected separately; and Breakable objects must be broken by each player. Player attacks happen in each player's world, damaging any enemies/players it comes in contact with. A player is only hurt by the enemies in their own world. This page explains how you can use other mods and addons to synchronize some aspects, and improve your experience.

aw i love this costume but its got so many problems

hornet floating is a major one

[robust knoll]

I'm trying to use HKMP

and every time i open a new save

or click play

whatever in the game

it auto opens a save

I cant pick a new one

or a diff save

[neat tundra]

that might be because you have the HKMP Tag addon

[robust knoll]

oh yes, i do

Does disabling that fix it?

[neat tundra]

i'm not sure if disabling it in the mods menu works

[robust knoll]

went to scarab and took it out

[dense wigeon]

-# Lumafly is better

[neat tundra]

but you can close the game and relaunch it without it or type /addon disable Tag in chat

[robust knoll]

now a second dumb question

we're on the same wifi network, friend cant connect

put in right Ip, port is 1

They put in my username as i wrote

[robust knoll]

I meant lumafly.. I just got Lumafly a little bit ago so i'm used to calling it that

[torn swan]

hello guys, can someone help me, i have the game on xbox pc game pass, how can I mod hollow knight, i use Lumafly and it says it cant find the file for some reason

[lunar root]

?tag gamepass

[fathom wigeon]

Modding "Xbox Games" versions (Gamepass / Microsoft's App Store):

Note: this is for Desktop/Laptop. You cannot mod the game on Xbox consoles

• Use Lumafly (it has additional support for this version that other installers currently don't have)
  • Download: https://themulhima.github.io/Lumafly?download
  • Make sure that the Lumafly's exe isn't in Downloads. Ideally put it on your Desktop.
• Right-Click the Lumafly.exe and select "Run as Administrator"
  • It should automatically find the install and ask if it's correct. If it doesn't find it, then you will need to link it to the Hollow Knight.exe found in C:\XboxGames\Hollow Knight\Content by default.
• After installing / installing any mods, wait about a minute before launching the game (this is because Windows does a weird thing for Xbox Games things, and it makes copies of files).
  If you have further issues, then please see #1090079233520451714 and create a #1057825333841240104 post if needed.

Important paths

• Save Files: %AppData%\..\Local\Packages\
  • Find a folder in here with Team Cherry in the name.
• Game Files: C:\XboxGames\Hollow Knight\Content\
• Mod Files: C:\XboxGames\Hollow Knight\Content\hollow_knight_Data\Managed\Mods\
• Note: Microsoft manages this install weirdly and syncs its files to inaccessible folders, so changes may need a few minutes to take effect and bugs with installing or uninstalling mods can occur.

[torn swan]

let me try and be back

i tried selecting the exe file but it wont let me select it saying its invalid

[torn swan]

do I need to make any other changes? for it to be valid

[fresh bridge]

If i made music for SS is there a easy way to have it play for a boss??

[little spruce]

im new to modding and im using lumafly, i have a skin mod and like can lumafly support adding in like a foreign mod ig?

[bronze dock]

can pale court be downloaded through lumafly, I see an option but i'm relatively new to modding so idk if its safe?

[red plinth]

Skins need the custom knight mod. Custom Knight is on lumafly.

[red plinth]

yeah the mods on lumafly are safe. all the mods on lumafly have links to their github pages so if you're worried you can always check their coding yourself.

[bronze dock]

k thanks

[little spruce]

thanks i was getting really confused why it wasnt working

[gloomy stirrup]

what are some good settings for rando

[bitter depot]

does anyone know why lumafly says smth like mismanaged folder or missing assembly csharp.dll when i have both assembly csharp and assembly csharp.dll.v, it works for my friend on windows but doesn't work for me since i am on mac and i am using the mac version of lumafly "Missing Managed folder or Assembly-CSharp!" smth like that

[queen knot]

i pirated hk when i started, but recently bought hk because i really liked the game. ive been trying to mod with lumafly recently but when i launch modded game, its on my pirated version and the mods do not load

everytime i try to load it get this error:

Unable to Install API .
Lumafly was unable to access the file in the mods folder.

I'm less familiar with Mac, but this may be relevant:

[fathom wigeon]

Common MacOS Problems & Fixes

Installer cannot be opened because it is from an unidentified developer:

On MacOS 15 (Sequoia) or later:

• Try to open the app once, then go to the System Settings and click "Privacy and Security" in the side bar.
• Scroll down to the security section. The installer should appear there, click the "Open" button next to it.
• Click "Open Anyway". You might need to enter your password there.
  With an older version of MacOS:
• In the Finder on Mac, locate the app you want to open. Don’t use Launchpad to do this! It doesn’t allow access the shortcut menu.
• Control + Left-Click the app icon, then choose "Open" from the shortcut menu.
• Left-Click "Open".
  • Note: You may need to do this twice, as the "Open" button doesn’t always appear the first time.
    The app is now saved as an exception to your security settings, and you can open it in the future by double-clicking it like normal.

Installer doesn't open correctly on MacOS:

• Right-Click the Installer icon, and select "show contents".
• Go into Contents then to the MacOS folder, and double-click the file with the same name as your installer (Scarab or Lumafly).
  • If that step didn’t start the installer but instead opened a terminal window with an exception saying that the access to a path was denied, you’ll need to run the app as administrator:
  • While in the MacOS folder mentioned above, right-click the folder’s name in the path at the bottom of the Finder’s window, and select "open in terminal".
  • Type the command sudo ./Lumafly or sudo ./Scarab (depending on your installer) in the terminal window then press enter.
  • Type your password, then press enter. The installer should now start.

Cannot Launch HK after updating MacOS or after changing patches:

• Follow the instructions in the official teamcherry troubleshooting post.

[vagrant orbit]

You can change it to your real one by going to Settings then selecting Change Path, then select your HK exe

• Skin Repository by Tadeas Jun

Common issues

• If the Skin List is covering up other mods, you can toggle it with Del or Fn+Del. You can edit this Keybind in the Custom Knight menu.
• If your skin doesn’t show up in the menu, ensure that you extracted it from the zip/rar/etc it came in (tutorial: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1207486627124093019/1403869873192571024/i.png).
• If your skin doesn’t work, go to Options > Mods > Custom Knight > Advanced > Fix My Skins. After this you may need to click Reload in the previous menu.
  • Upgraded Dream Shield (UDS) breaks Custom Knight’s first launch. To use both mods at once: disable UDS, open a save with only Custom Knight and wait until it stops lagging. You can then close the game and enable UDS again.
• If you see White Boxes ◻️, restart your game. You may also need to apply skins in a small room like a stag station.
• Ensure that you apply skins from the Pause Menu when your save file is loaded. Skins applied from the Main Menu only affect new files.

Troubleshooting

If your problem isn't fixed from the Common Issues section, create a post in #1057825333841240104

Editing save files

You can edit various values of save files. Below are different available methods.

• MoreSaves Mod | Install
• With the MoreSaves mod installed, you can edit save files from the in-game Menu. Either from the Main Menu or Pause Menu, go to Options > Mods > MoreSaves to edit save files in game.
• QoL mod | Install
  • If you open a save file with QoL installed, you'll have an extra file called user#.json (where # is the file number), which can be edited using Notepad or a similar text editor. If you do not know where your saves are located, type ?tag saves for more information
• DebugMod | Install
  • While not an intended purpose, you can edit some parts of your save file using Debug, such as Nail Damage, and those changes will remain even after uninstalling the mod.
• Website
  • Find the Save File, upload it to the website, and make the edits. It will Download as save file for Slot 1, so rename it if needed. If you do not know where your saves are located, type ?tag saves for more information

How it works

HKMP puts a copy of each player into each other players world.
Enemies have separate health and will usually be in different places; Items/abilities must be collected separately; and Breakable objects must be broken by each player. Player attacks happen in each player's world, damaging any enemies/players it comes in contact with. A player is only hurt by the enemies in their own world. This page explains how you can use other mods and addons to synchronize some aspects, and improve your experience.

so does transcendence not work in files you had before getting it

[dense wigeon]

As far as placing the items, no (almost all item changer mods require a new save ro place things)

You can give them to yourself with debug I believe

There are debug savestates, which speedrunners use to practice. Not sure if there's anything beyond that

There's a pantheon mod

It loads the scene for any of the bosses

[fathom wigeon]

Editing save files

You can edit various values of save files. Below are different available methods.

• MoreSaves Mod | Install
• With the MoreSaves mod installed, you can edit save files from the in-game Menu. Either from the Main Menu or Pause Menu, go to Options > Mods > MoreSaves to edit save files in game.
• QoL mod | Install
  • If you open a save file with QoL installed, you'll have an extra file called user#.json (where # is the file number), which can be edited using Notepad or a similar text editor. If you do not know where your saves are located, type ?tag saves for more information
• DebugMod | Install
  • While not an intended purpose, you can edit some parts of your save file using Debug, such as Nail Damage, and those changes will remain even after uninstalling the mod.
• Website
  • Find the Save File, upload it to the website, and make the edits. It will Download as save file for Slot 1, so rename it if needed. If you do not know where your saves are located, type ?tag saves for more information

• Skin Repository by Tadeas Jun
• Video Tutorial 🎦 by fireb0rn
• [How to use Enemy/Boss Skins](#modding-discussion message)
• Guide to Creating a Skin by HBKit

Common issues

• If the Skin List is covering up other mods, you can toggle it with Del or Fn+Del. You can edit this Keybind in the Custom Knight menu.
• If your skin doesn’t show up in the menu, ensure that you extracted it from the zip/rar/etc it came in (tutorial: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1207486627124093019/1403869873192571024/i.png).
• If your skin doesn’t work, go to Options > Mods > Custom Knight > Advanced > Fix My Skins. After this you may need to click Reload in the previous menu.
  • Upgraded Dream Shield (UDS) breaks Custom Knight’s first launch. To use both mods at once: disable UDS, open a save with only Custom Knight and wait until it stops lagging. You can then close the game and enable UDS again.
• If you see White Boxes ◻️, restart your game. You may also need to apply skins in a small room like a stag station.
• Ensure that you apply skins from the Pause Menu when your save file is loaded. Skins applied from the Main Menu only affect new files.

Troubleshooting

If your problem isn't fixed from the Common Issues section, create a post in #1057825333841240104
You must include a screenshot that shows:

Modding "Xbox Games" versions (Gamepass / Microsoft's App Store):

Note: this is for Desktop/Laptop. You cannot mod the game on Xbox consoles

• Use Lumafly (it has additional support for this version that other installers currently don't have)
  • Download: https://themulhima.github.io/Lumafly?download
  • Make sure that the Lumafly's exe isn't in Downloads. Ideally put it on your Desktop.
• Right-Click the Lumafly.exe and select "Run as Administrator"
  • It should automatically find the install and ask if it's correct. If it doesn't find it, then you will need to link it to the Hollow Knight.exe found in C:\XboxGames\Hollow Knight\Content by default.
• After installing / installing any mods, wait about a minute before launching the game (this is because Windows does a weird thing for Xbox Games things, and it makes copies of files).
  If you have further issues, then please see #1090079233520451714 and create a #1057825333841240104 post if needed.

Important paths

• Save Files: %AppData%\..\Local\Packages\
  • Find a folder in here with Team Cherry in the name.
• Game Files: C:\XboxGames\Hollow Knight\Content\
• Mod Files: C:\XboxGames\Hollow Knight\Content\hollow_knight_Data\Managed\Mods\
• Note: Microsoft manages this install weirdly and syncs its files to inaccessible folders, so changes may need a few minutes to take effect and bugs with installing or uninstalling mods can occur.

I had the (possibly stupid) idea earlier to try adding a boss from another metroidvania indie game made in Unity called Glyphs, to hollow knight. I have experience modding Glyphs and obviously nothing is a 1:1 conversion (probably redoing Glyphs parry checks to hk’s whatever you call it) and probably a ton of backend stuff but it feels doable. I just don’t know how hard it is to mod hk vs just any Unity game (glyphs had no kind of modding api before I started messing with it)

Mods that can be configured usually have in-game options (in options -> mods), also make sure to check each mods Readme. Sometimes they have settings without an options menu, in that case you can click the button in their descriptions on Lumafly to open their global settings file if they have one. If neither of these options are available then you won't be able to change what you want without recompiling the mod

• If your skin doesn’t show up in the menu, ensure that you extracted it from the zip/rar/etc it came in (tutorial: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1207486627124093019/1403869873192571024/i.png).
• If your skin doesn’t work, go to Options > Mods > Custom Knight > Advanced > Fix My Skins. After this you may need to click Reload in the previous menu.
  • Upgraded Dream Shield (UDS) breaks Custom Knight’s first launch. To use both mods at once: disable UDS, open a save with only Custom Knight and wait until it stops lagging. You can then close the game and enable UDS again.
• If you see White Boxes ◻️, restart your game. You may also need to apply skins in a small room like a stag station.
• Ensure that you apply skins from the Pause Menu when your save file is loaded. Skins applied from the Main Menu only affect new files.

[limpid iris]

How does modding Hollow Knight work if I play it through Steam Family? I think it is the exact same way but I want to check

[dense wigeon]

it's listed in the mod description on lumafly

[dense wigeon]

Some people have reported not being able to mod, presumably due to not having admin priviledges, but you can give it a try

[prime sable]

when it comes to chaos randomizer rooms is there a chance getting a dream boss like nkg

[unborn arrow]

Randomizer 4 and as many of the others as you want

[lucid thicket]

late reply, but if you want to go that route you'll have to look into how to get the proper setup to build mods, there's a guide for that in the modding server, you can grab the dev role and check the pins of https://discord.com/channels/879125729936298015/936668443959234570

how do i mod silksong?

[fathom wigeon]

Silksong Modding is not yet considered supported!

Silksong mod troubleshooting will not be supported here until the core Silksong modding tools and resources are finished being made. If you're eager to mod it early, then you are doing so at your own risk, and you will need to figure out how to install them yourself or ask the creator of them for resources if they aren't in the mod's ReadMe.

[modest matrix]

i forgor how i installed mine

[vapid phoenix]

I wonder, now with silksong out could it be possible to mod a playable hornet into hk?

[coarse pelican]

[lunar root]

[minor hawk]

They are in the video description…
Again, you can find them on the skin list

[tender cairn]

i cant set hollow knight folder as the one thunderstore needs to use as my main one

[lunar root]

[fathom wigeon]

Lumafly

[lean steppe]

@unique kindle WHY is hog rando STILL there😭

[dense wigeon]

To tell people still using it to update to Godhome Rando

[lean steppe]

Its been about 9 billion years since that,nerth has already said like 3 times it should be removed by now

[dense wigeon]

There's still people that show up with MapModS in their modlist it doesn't hurt anything to be there to redirect

[inland isle]

where is the github scarab link

[lunar root]

Pinned, but you should be using lumafly as it has more features and less bugs

[dreamy gull]

Are the various audio files from the game available anywhere? I have the soundtrack on Apple Music, but was thinking I’d like to put together my own mixed versions of the songs that last a little longer for personal enjoyment. Particularly the City of Tears track is just too short! I’d like to loop it a little more. Is that something I’m even allowed to discuss on here? 😅

[hazy cosmos]

Ah, thanks!

[marble crow]

does anyone know some guide documents or videos if I wanna make a mod?thanks!

[heady maple]

On lumafly there is like 1000 things when I seach in the word randomizer which one(s) do I use? I want an item randomizer that doesn't allow me to soft lock. I have 112% the game so I am looking for something new until a Silksong randomzier comes out.

[ripe linden]

guys would u say it’s safe to play with customknight mod on my main save file or is that risky? please reply to this message or ping me to respond

[fierce flame]

ghost pinged back to the grave

[fierce flame]

It's fine but if it's a first playthough you may want to avoid using it since it spoils alot via the pngs and some skins have dialogue or enemy reskins that mess with things

[austere oak]

guys is there a mod that can teleport you to bosses so you can fight them instantly

[ripe linden]

i’m almost done with the game, like 85%

just doing some final works before going and doing true ending

[ripe linden]

do you have dream gate?

[lucid thicket]

Randomizer 4. Other randos are connections to randomize for things, but don't use too many of them (or at all) for a first rando. Make sure to check the mod's readme, also this has some useful rando related info:

[fathom wigeon]

Common MacOS Problems & Fixes

Installer cannot be opened because it is from an unidentified developer:

On MacOS 15 (Sequoia) or later:

• Try to open the app once, then go to the System Settings and click "Privacy and Security" in the side bar.
• Scroll down to the security section. The installer should appear there, click the "Open" button next to it.
• Click "Open Anyway". You might need to enter your password there.
  With an older version of MacOS:
• In the Finder on Mac, locate the app you want to open. Don’t use Launchpad to do this! It doesn’t allow access the shortcut menu.
• Control + Left-Click the app icon, then choose "Open" from the shortcut menu.
• Left-Click "Open".
  • Note: You may need to do this twice, as the "Open" button doesn’t always appear the first time.
    The app is now saved as an exception to your security settings, and you can open it in the future by double-clicking it like normal.

Installer doesn't open correctly on MacOS:

• Right-Click the Installer icon, and select "show contents".
• Go into Contents then to the MacOS folder, and double-click the file with the same name as your installer (Scarab or Lumafly).
  • If that step didn’t start the installer but instead opened a terminal window with an exception saying that the access to a path was denied, you’ll need to run the app as administrator:
  • While in the MacOS folder mentioned above, right-click the folder’s name in the path at the bottom of the Finder’s window, and select "open in terminal".
  • Type the command sudo ./Lumafly or sudo ./Scarab (depending on your installer) in the terminal window then press enter.
  • Type your password, then press enter. The installer should now start.

Cannot Launch HK after updating MacOS or after changing patches:

• Follow the instructions in the official teamcherry troubleshooting post.
